how_o can_v god_n be_v say_v to_o be_v fear_v who_o be_v only_o good_a yea_o the_o sovereign_a good_a of_o all_o to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o fear_n have_v a_o double_a respect_n first_o of_o

the_o good_a which_o we_o love_v may_v by_o some_o evil_n be_v lose_v and_o take_v from_o us._n and_o second_o because_o the_o good_a we_o fear_v may_v have_v in_o it_o some_o power_n and_o strength_n to_o inflict_v evil_a upon_o us._n which_o two_o respect_n the_o philosopher_n say_v be_v the_o only_a original_a cause_n of_o fear_n amor_n and_o defectus_fw-la love_n and_o weakness_n love_n unto_o that_o good_a which_o we_o fear_v to_o loose_v and_o inability_n to_o resist_v that_o evil_a which_o will_v take_v that_o good_a from_o us._n for_o why_o do_v we_o fear_v death_n but_o because_o we_o love_v life_n and_o why_o do_v we_o fear_v a_o good_a magistrate_n but_o because_o he_o have_v that_o power_n to_o inflict_v punishment_n upon_o we_o which_o we_o be_v not_o able_a to_o resist_v if_o we_o do_v not_o love_v that_o which_o be_v good_a we_o shall_v not_o fear_v to_o lose_v it_o and_o if_o we_o have_v power_n to_o withstand_v that_o which_o be_v evil_a we_o shall_v not_o fear_v it_o at_o all_o for_o the_o bite_n of_o a_o dog_n be_v evil_a but_o the_o lion_n fear_v it_o not_o because_o he_o be_v able_a to_o resist_v it_o what_o be_v the_o reason_n that_o saul_n fear_v and_o

the_o only_a cause_n of_o fear_n in_o both_o of_o these_o respect_n there_o be_v none_o who_o we_o ought_v to_o fear_v so_o much_o as_o god_n the_o lord_n for_o who_o better_a to_o be_v belove_v in_o
